Publisher's Synopsis
The aim of this volume is to show that the Christian faith, though varying in adaptation to the changing conditions of men and society, has ever preserved its essential identity. It has been, is, and will be, one. It has never cut from beneath it the foundations of antiquity and history. Its vital doctrines are generically the same today as they were closest touch with its origin, and as they have been held these centuries. All the advances of modern progress and all the discoveries of science have not shaken one central pillar of this blessed edifice of the faith and hopes or man. Whatever else has passed away, or will pass away, Christianity, reared by the pierced hand of its Founder upon the Rock of Truth, endures. Only to such a religion, which can face unmoved the eternal years, can the soul entrust its immortal destiny. - From the Foreword
